Employment Law for the Employer
Symes Robinson & Lee offer employers professional legal advice and services on Employment Law matters.
Your business's greatest asset is its workforce. The law relating to employment and industrial relations is rapidly evolving and complex.
As an employer, there may be occasions when you need to consult a solicitor to discuss issues relating to employment law. For instance, a restructuring of your business will require careful examination of employment severance terms, while other situations could lead to considerations such as worker dismissal, redundancy, or possibly claims of discrimination made by an employee.
Your business needs an experienced, pragmatic and commercial approach to Human Resource support and employment issues and disputes. Symes Robinson & Lee Solicitor's dedicated and specialist employment team are ready to offer this service.
Do you need employment legal advice on:
- Your rights as an employer
- Assistance with the day-to-day management of HR issues such as discrimination, dismissal & disciplinary procedures, redundancies, recruitment and help to avoid disputes where possible.
- Help to draft and tailor contracts of employment, policies including health and safety legislation, documents on procedures and handbooks to match the precise needs of your business.
- Claims resulting from Health and Safety issues.
- Skilled experienced representation at contested tribunals. Our tribunal representation will realistically assess the strengths of your case at the outset, with possible outcomes and costs involved. We will help you to comply with time limits and directions and put you in the strongest possible position.

They also reduce the risk of tribunal claims and help in providing a successful defence when they arise.
